Improving Real-Time GPS by incorporating TelegraphCQ in Jamdroid Architecture

Abstract

Data Stream Management System is a new class of stream handling with SQL-like queries & robustness at relatively high streams of data. TelegraphCQ is an open source DSMS tool developed towards handling live streams of data. Jamdroid, on the other hand, is a new collaborative project, developed on Android platform, that gathers road traffic reports from all its end-users, compiles the data and reports back to the navigation software of the users. It involves a data analysis algorithm running on the user device, and Internet servers that retrieve the data from the user, merge them, and send them back to the community. Such a system is meant to be accessed by a large number of users, and has to be fast-responsive enough to deal with all the requests; hence, provisions must be made for effective live stream handling. We will see how such a system can gain immensely by incorporating Data Stream Management System, using open-source TelegraphCQ, for data stream processing & querying.
